Windows Media Player cuts tracks short when burning

microsoft.public.windows.vista.music pictures video

Hi, when I burn audio/data CDs which I have always used windows to do (not WMP) over the past year, the results have been fine. Vista now seems to hand it over to Media Player to burn and the result for audio CD's is the last 5-10 seconds are cut off of each track. Data CDs seem okay.

Is there any way to stop Media Player taking over? On another note; I've told it not to rip CDs when inserted, but it still goes ahead and does what it likes

The second part should be your system-wide AutoPlay settings as opposed to
the internal player AutoPlay setting.
